I have composed a soundtrack for "Felix the Cat in Two-Lip Time", an originally silent animated cartoon from 1926. It features a jazz combo and an orchestra - all virtual instruments, of course ;-) This is my first post, so bear with me.
I have deliberately not used any sound effects for the score but have instead tried to emulate a real orchestra using traditional instruments. This applies also to the final scene where the orchestra gets crazy using a whole arsenal of percussion instruments like the marimba, the celesta, timpani, cymbals, chimes, bells, wood blocks, and a wind machine.
"Two-Lip Time", which is believed to be in the public domain, is the story of Felix' adventures in the Netherlands. While abundant with kinda cheesy clichées, it's a great deal of fun to watch.
There is a unique both anarchistic and whimsical charm in the crude hand-drawn images from Pat Sullivan Producations that is hard to find these days, I feel. For more information go to

Enjoy! And thanks for viewing. - Oliver
